Rabbi Yudi Dukes, the longtime director of Jewish Learning Network, who inspired many mitzvah campaigns in his merit, passed away today, 8 Shevat, 5781. He was 39 years old.
Reb Yudi was hospitalized for 241 days, one of the longest corona related hospitalizations in the world. Throughout it all, thousands around the world davened, learned, and did
mitzvos in his merit.
On Yud Kislev, Yudi was finally released home to his family only to return to the hospital the next day due to liver failure. In the past few days, his condition took a turn for the worse.
